Title: Which of these billionaires is most likely to become president? Post by: Cassandra on October 09, 2019, 08:53:06 PM Fun fact, most of the 300 wealthiest Americans are over 65. I had to go down to #288 to fill out this list. I thought about excluding all heirs, but ultimately there's no reason why someone like Carl Cook can't run for president if he wanted to. It's not difficult to buy positive press when you have billions of dollars at your disposal.

Gates has repeatedly said he doesn’t want to involve himself in politics by running for office, so not him. Title: Re: Which of these billionaires is most likely to become president? Post by: Beefalow and the Consumer on October 28, 2019, 03:08:36 PM Was Sergey Brin born a US citizen?

Post by: Orser67 on October 31, 2019, 01:48:05 PM Voted for Zuckerberg because of his age/wealth advantage, but with all the negative press for FB I don't think he'll be a viable candidate until 2028 at the earliest.
Out of these choices, Gates would be by far the strongest candidate in 2024. Title: Re: Which of these billionaires is most likely to become president?
